Jordyn Zimmerman said it best: education for students with disabilities is a right. But right now, families have to navigate a confusing, expensive process just to challenge segregation—and that’s not okay. Jordyn reminds us we need a fully funded national framework that makes inclusion real, not just a nice idea. Every student deserves to belong. Let’s make it happen. #ThinkInclusive #InclusiveEducation #DisabilityRights | Maryland Coalition for Inclusive Education

“You should try PECS!” No. No. No. Because communication is bigger than requests. As Jordyn Zimmerman says: “PECS is not a communication system. PECS is a requesting system.” Requesting is one function of communication. It is not identity. It is not autonomy. It is not participation. If a learner can only ask for what others decide is worth asking for, that’s not access. That’s limitation. Presume competence. Build robust communication systems.
